In regards to RRRC Waste Composting Facility

Of the total amount of rubbish delivered to the facility 44% is sent to landfill, 38% is turned into compost, and 18% is moisture lost through the process. (as stated in the City of Canning Council minutes dated 25th March 2008) The compost - which is not salable due to it's impurities - is carted away and used in Landfill. So 82% ends up in landfill anyway! Keep in mind that the RRRC Waste Composting Facility receives the rubbish placed in the GREEN WHEELIE BINS, not the yellow topped bins. It's the RRRC Waste Composting Facility that emits the odour.

Residents are Sick of the RRRC WCF odour!
